At what speed relative to a laboratory does a clock tick at one third the rate of an identical clock at rest in the laboratory? Give your answer as a fraction of c. Express your answer as a fraction of c to two significant figures.

At what speed relative to a laboratory does a clock tick at one quarter the rate of an identical clock at rest in the laboratory? Give your answer as a fraction of c.

2 Clock A travels to the right at a speed v- 5C relative to clocks B and C. As A passes B, all clocks read 12:00 (shown in the figure below). These readings could be seen simultaneously by a stationary observer O, midway between B and C, though O would make the observation at some later time. VI (a) Clock C reads 6:00 as A passes C. What does clock A read? 7 X45 (b) At what time does observer...

(a) A person's "resting" heart rate is his or her normal heart rate measured while sitting still (and long after doing anything physically exerting). A nurse on Earth measures the resting heart rate of a patient as 66.0 beats/min. Imagine the patient travels aboard a spaceship moving with a constant speed of 0.89c with respect to the Earth. What would be the patient's resting heart rate (in beats/min) as measured by someone else aboard the ship? beats/min (b) Imagine an...

The speed of light in some other universe is 30 m/s. You want to cover a distance of 100 m in 10 s (as measured on your watch) at a constant speed. a. How fast should you run? b. How long did it take you to cover that distance according to an observer at rest with respect to the track? (Carry four sig figs throughout the calculation).

Which of the following statements are IMPOSSIBLE? Choose all that apply. The rocket's speed was measured to be 0.65c. The rocket's rest length is 300 m. An observer flying by measured the rocket to be 321 m long. A rocket flying away from the Sun at 0.78c measured the speed of the photons (particles of light) emitted by the Sun to be c. An inertial reference frame had an acceleration of 0 m/s2.The proper time interval between two events was...

You have a pendulum clock on the Moon, where g = 1.63 m/s2 . What rate does it run at, if that same clock keep accurate time on Earth? In other words, how long would it take (in hours) for the clock's hour hand to make one revolution on the Moon?

A certain elevator cab has a total run of 199 m and a maximum speed is 307 m/min, and it accelerates from rest and then back to rest at 1.11 m/s-. (a) How far does the cab move while accelerating to full speed from rest? (b) How long does it take to make the nonstop 199 m run, starting and ending at rest? (a) Number (b) Number Units Units

My Note A spaceship is moving at a speed ot 0.9c away from an observer at rest. A boy in the spaceship shoots a proton gun with protons having a speed of 0.2c. (a) What is the speed of the protons measured by the observer at rest when the gun is shot away from the observer? (b) What is the speed of the protons measured by the observer at rest when the gun is shot toward the observer? O Type...

Einstein's first postulate (the relativity principle) states that: a. the speed of light is independent of the speed of the source or observer. b. the laws of physics have the same form in all inertial reference frames. c. the length of an object moving relative to an observer is measured to be shorter along its direction of motion than when it is at rest. d. at speeds much less than the speed of light, the relativistic formulas reduce to the...
